Yes I know it sounds melodramatic but it's the only way to describe this.
For the past couple of weeks I've been playing around with the ONTAP 9 simulator. I upgraded it to 9.1 using option 1 from the boot menu immediately after deploying the 9.0 OVA file.
I am running this on a VMWare ESXi 5.5 host with 1GbE network connectivity.
It works fine all week but when I come in on Monday it's died with at least one of the nodes showing [nodename:callhome.root.vol.recovery.reqd}EMERGENCY] Call home for ROOT VOLUME NOT WORKING PROPERLY: RECOVERY REQUIRED
At the top of the console is also reference that "the system was down for 346 seconds" suggesting it may have rebooted
This happens just after midmight on Sat night / Sun morning.
I can't access either host to get to log files (unless you guys know how to)
Any thoughts on whether this is an ONTAP issue or some external (VMWare?) triggered event?
I took VMWare snapshots on Friday so can recover but it's a PITA to have to do this every Monday!
